We are not recommending to buy, and are merely stating the likely beneficiaries.

There was a huge thrust to agriculture with the outlay increasing sizeably in Union Budget 2016-17. This could benefit Jain Irrigation, which is leading player in plastic pipes and drip Irrigation systems. The stock closed at Rs 54.60 on the NSE.

2) Kaveri Seeds

3) Swaraj Engines

This is a major tractor engine player and a straight forward beneficiary in view of the higher agriculture layout in the Union Budget 2016-17. The stock closed at Rs 825 on the NSE.

4) Apollo Hospitals

e Health Protection Scheme of Rs 1 lakh, with an additional Rs 30,000 for senior citizens will boost companies in the healthcare business like Apollo Hospitals. The Budget's ability to focus on healthcare for inclusive growth is a good sign.

5) VST Tillers and Tractors

8) State Bank of India

State Bank of India should receive some money from the promised recapitalization of Rs 25,000 crores for public sector banks in the Union Budget 2016-17.

9) Bank of Baroda

Like State Bank of India, Bank of Baroda is another stock that will benefit from re-capitalization. The other indirect benefit would be that since the government has maintained the fiscal deficit, the RBI may cut interest rates further.

It is important to understand that budget implications generally tend to be long term in nature. So, if you want the benefits of the Union Budget 2016-17 immediately on some of these companies, it is not going to happen. One should be willing to wait and hold onto stocks for at least 2-3 years.
